Coach Talk

Bruno Sammartino
This sport is all about spotting (and exploiting) the mismatches. Thanks to a stellar performance by Joe Burrow, we doubled up Rougeau brothers at the quarterback position this past week (44.5 points to 20.86). Burrow went 40-for-52 for 375 yards, three TDs, and two INTs in a four-point win over the Patriots.
Rougeau brothers
Three WRs, three RBs, zero TE, zero TDs: The six starting offensive position players on Rougeau brothers combined to register a whopping 423 yards from scrimmage. No one from that group could get into the end zone in Week 16.
